Pitching is changing. And so is Pitch.

Four years have flown by since our public launch. Since then, we’ve been busy expanding and enhancing the tools teams use to create compelling decks. For most users, these presentations are their bread and butter — they help land clients, close deals, and grow accounts. But we’ve noticed a shift: Impressive slides alone aren’t enough anymore.

Growing revenue now means pitching repeatedly across multiple stages, with slides that adapt while staying on brand and on message. And it doesn’t stop there. Pitching has become more complex, requiring a personalized, interactive, and data-driven approach. To seal the deal, you need to deliver a seamless, end-to-end experience.

As the needs of pitching teams are evolving, so too is Pitch. Starting today, Pitch is more than just presentation software — it’s a complete pitching platform. For the first time ever, teams can create stunning decks and drive client interactions within a single, unified workflow.

Goodbye siloed processes, hello streamlined efficiency. There’s never been a better time to get everyone on board, from designers and marketers to customer-facing folks, so the whole team can collaborate under one roof. 

To mark this chapter, we’re unveiling the new features that’ll help you craft polished slides and use them to generate transformative results.

Introducing the virtual pitch room

Picture your pitching materials. You probably have a few decks — think proposal, company overview, feature updates. Then there are other documents like order forms and terms. Throw in meeting recordings, scheduling links, and videos, and it’s easy to lose track of what’s going on.

That’s why, with this launch, we’re excited to introduce the brand-new pitch room: a customizable, virtual space where you can provide clients a series of curated assets to streamline their decision-making.

By creating a room in Pitch, your team can now assemble multiple presentations, links, and files for a variety of different purposes. Spin up a digital sales room with pricing proposals and scheduling links to nurture a prospect. Create an onboarding room to welcome new leads with helpful videos and slides. Or deliver creative assets to customers at the close of a project, all in one place.

Your clients are greeted with a sleek, personalized UI that includes a custom note and point of contact. But the room’s benefits go both ways. It also provides a clear overview for your team: You see exactly what’s being shared, and can prevent things from falling through the cracks.

Autofill a pitch room from your CRM

If you’re a customer-facing team, chances are you spend a lot of time in your CRM. To make life easier, we’ve created a handy plugin that lets you build a pitch room without ever leaving your workflow.

With the Pitch app for HubSpot, coming in December 2024, you can prefill a room with content or send decks to clients. Once you’re all set, you can then share the room’s link and password directly from the CRM, or jump into Pitch to edit your assets. 

This plugin is just the first step of our plan to fully integrate the CRM, so teams juggling multiple projects and accounts can quickly share relevant content with new prospects. We’re already working on a Salesforce integration, and would love your input on which CRM should be next.

It complements other new streamlining features like variables — placeholders that let you automatically change content across an entire deck without going slide by slide — and library collections, which make it easy to find assets organized according to team, client, or project.

Create a branded experience with custom domains

Imagine you’re sending a new client a link to your pitch room. While we personally think the pitch.com domain’s pretty awesome, we get that a custom URL can seem more professional and does a better job of showing you’re in control.

That’s why you can now host both your decks and deal rooms on a subdomain of your own site, providing a truly branded experience. There are many ways you could put this to work: Reference the type of content you’re sharing (like pitch.yourname.com or slides.yourname.com), describe your team or relationship to the recipient (sales.yourname.com or partners.yourname.com), or keep it generic (sharing.yourname.com).

This highly requested feature not only boosts your brand’s visibility but also reassures clients about the source and authenticity of the deck you’re sharing. It’s a little detail — but one that’ll make your presentations more effective and ensure your audience feels confident in your content.

Know what’s working with analytics

Presentation analytics are one of our most powerful and popular features. Insights like how many people have viewed which slides, and for how long, help teams understand who’s engaged and what part of their messaging is hitting home. 

Now, you can also get analytics for a whole pitch room and its content to learn what’s working, and what needs tweaking. Just like with individual presentations, you can create a link for a room, give it a custom name, add a passcode for extra security, require an email for access, and send it off to your prospect. Then sit back and see when they visit the room, open a deck, and click on an attachment or CTA.

The links overview page lets you manage all your rooms, along with the presentations you’ve shared, in one place. That way, you can quickly share a link, control access, or track who has engaged with each room to tailor your follow-up and improve your content.

Engage your audience with interactive decks

A pitch room isn’t complete without a pitch deck, right? But not just any deck — it needs to stand out. For too long, presentations have been trapped in the same old formula: headlines, bullet points, images, and maybe a chart or two. That’s why, earlier this year, we launched our embeds feature, allowing you to insert dynamic content from thousands of external sites directly into your slides. 

Embeds don’t just make your decks pop. They also focus your audience’s attention and create a seamless pitching experience. (Yes, there’s a theme here.)

Want to turn the sales process into a true dialogue? Build a Typeform survey or HubSpot form right into your deck. Need to present a prototype from Figma? Embed it in a slide. Whether you’re demoing a product, sharing a personalized video recording, or booking a discovery call, embeds bring decks to life, drive creative thinking, and give you more control over the pitching process.

To keep your narrative flowing and viewers hooked, you can also embed animations from a platform like LottieFiles — or animate assets from your library using Pitch’s classic effects and the cutting-edge continuity transition.

Where we’ll go from here

Since 2020, Pitch has been on a mission to create a platform for our users to share big ideas and grow. Along the way, we’ve been adopted by over one (now two!) million teams. We’ve dabbled in AI and finessed our UI. And we’ve celebrated many other feature releases, like our gallery of presentation templates and integrations with the wider pitching stack, including the likes of HubSpot, Slack, and Notion.

Today, we’re proud to trailblaze the tools that’ll empower you to deliver an end-to-end pitching experience to your customers. On top of our existing design, collaboration, and analytics capabilities, the new features and broader scope gives you everything you need to pitch smarter, close deals faster, and fuel your business growth. 

In 2025, we’ll keep building and refining to make good on our promise of being the complete pitching platform. In the end, though, it’s not just about the updates we release but the impact we make on our users’ lives. So we’d love to hear your feedback. What are you most excited about? What do you want to see next?
